@thor It has happened in numerous places in the US. Yeah I don't think heavy metal inside glass is that good for the environment.

@thor Apple: RISC to CISC to RISC. Those iMacs were rather impressive.

@louis@evil.social @thor @jeff Virgins too.

@freemo @admitsWrongIfProven

@lupyuen They were good for edge computing devices.

@lore At least they know recursion.

@lore Is it worth it to try to overclock to 666 Hz?

@lore Simple enough. Sell product.

@thor I hope those nets are to prevent people from getting in an altered state of mind and falling up into the sky.

@skylar@wolfgirl.bar @thor Looks like there could be a decent server room with that capacity.

@lore That sounds like I wouldn't get rich enough to kill people on my own private island for fun.

@lore As in software dependencies?

@lore In my country they say that opposites attract. I love RISC-V and FPGSs.

It makes a lot of sense with the ISA but I've been told before that I wasn't looking at the correct ISA and that it's not written in stone. Hopefully things have changed because it wasn't easy to work with and making absolute garbage is bad for sales. Performance was surprisingly good but my two experiences were on the more cursed chips.

Just do your research before you buy one. I was hoping for an open ecosystem and I found out that it was actually a portal to hell. If you thought that setting up a development environment was bad, RISCY 5ish was a fresh layer of hell thanks to all those companies involved.

I really despise the manufacturers of my chips and I know they could have been more transparent or followed a standard. RISC-V is a fantastic ISA but the companies were horrible. It could have changed but until I see domestic production and entirely open designs, I wouldn't buy one and expect anything but disappointment.
